I just had a play with an audiobook from the library, and although both mp3 and wma were available, and mp3 is supported, the mp3 downloaded as an odm file (Overdrive Media), so we'll need them to port the Overdrive Console to listen on the Chromebooks. There doesn't seem to be a 'listen in the browser' equivalent to the Overdrive Read functionality as yet.
